Foreword he Wellington after the Quake conference sought to answer the questions faced by everyone in authority when cities commence recovery after a disaster: What happens next? T What do I do now? I proposed the conference within the Earthquake Commission (EQC), both to provide background for our own disaster management planning and to assist public and private planning for disaster recovery. All other government agencies or departments, local authority councils, businesses, or large organisations that face severe damage in a disaster need to plan their recovery. In order to do so, they, like EQC, need a basis for their planning. The conference set out such a basis by identifying the problems sure to be faced and by indicating possible solutions based on world and New Zealand experience. Much of the planning in the public sector relating to disasters has focused on the response phase — people’s needs immedi- ately after a disaster. So, too, with businesses, disaster recovery planning has focused on ways of getting the business up and running immediately, somewhere, somehow. Neither has dealt to any extent with the longer-term recovery from a disaster, including reconstruction of facilities, rebuild- ing of communities, and rebuilding of organisations. This conference brought together world and New Zealand authorities, with academic and technical expertise and with practical experience. The conference concentrated on Wellington, but by bringing to bear the best knowledge from around the world, its results are applicable to many cities around the world. The insights from this conference should be of value in every city that faces a risk of natural disaster. The conference was substantially supported by major sponsors, who are listed on page iii. The Earthquake Commission thanks the sponsors on its own behalf and on behalf of all those who attended the conference. Thanks are also due to the members of the organising committees for their invaluable help in making the conference a success.

  • Changes to Disaster Insurance in New Zealand
    437 CHANGES TO DISASTER INSURANCE IN NEW ZEALAND SUMMARY This article is based on material supplied by EQC in its information kit detailing the background to and consequences of the Earthquake Act 1993. After discussing the need for a change in insuring for disasters, the new natural disaster insurance for residential properties - EQCover - is outlined. This is followed by an outline of the phase-out of EQC cover for disaster insurance for commercial and "Special Purpose" properties. The new structure for and role of the Earthquake Commission is also outlined. INTRODUCTION there hadn't even been cleared away, let alone rebuilt. Recently, Parliament passed the Earthquake Commission Act Since its establishment, the EQC has been called on to pay 1993 which will take effect from 1 January 1994.

  • Stormwater Infrastructure
    Assessment of Water and Sanitary Services 2005 x Long Term Council Community Plan x Bush and Stream Restoration Plan 2001 x Asset Management Plan. 6.3 Stormwater Infrastructure 6.3.1 Catchments A catchment is defined by topography. A main stream and tributaries join together in the catchment to form a water system which drains through a single outlet into the harbour or south coast. Council catchments are generally based upon actual drainage characteristics, but are also affected by management boundaries. The more urbanised eastern side of the Wellington region has been broken up into 42 individual catchments ranging in size and elevation from rural Kaiwharawhara (1917 ha, 420m) to smaller urban catchments such as Thorndon (12 ha, sea level). The rural western region has not been subdivided into catchments at this time. Figure 9 shows the main stormwater catchments. All these catchments contain a multitude of small watercourses, streams and piped stormwater infrastructure. The rural streams are generally narrow and restricted channels with over hanging vegetation, compared to the channelised urban streams. Streams have an average grade of 7.25% throughout the region, representing the steep topography associated with most of the Wellington catchments. Wellington stormwater from these catchments is discharged directly into the City’s streams, harbour and south coast. Eleven of the major discharges to the sea are currently consented under the RMA 1991. The consents for the discharge of wastewater-contaminated stormwater to the coastal marine area were issued in 1994 and require Council to carry out improvement works by 2013. The works are dependent on the individual consent conditions.

The Western Corridor generally follows State Highway 1 from the regional border north of Ōtaki to Ngauranga and the North Island Main Trunk railway to Kaiwharawhara. The main east- west connections are State Highway 58 and the interchange for State Highways 1 and 2 at Ngauranga.
